*whispers tinily* i keep seeing online stuff about millennials/genZers blaming boomers or each other for whatever whatever and once again i thank every deity in the universe for the fact that genX are largely ignored keep hiding in the shed listening to the clash they’ll never find us

Danny Tommo's 'patriot platform' vigilantes were refused service in The George Inn, Portsmouth. They demanded to know why, despite the fact they do not have to be given a reason. Always make bigots feel unwelcome. Show the pub some love for doing the right thing. Things you love to see ✊❤️

You do, it just depends on which axis you're talking about.

"The polls are clear – an overwhelming number of voters want to rejoin the EU. Millions of Brexit voters have died and the young want to get back in," writes Peter Kellner. @thenewworldmag.bsky.social

He absolutely should be impeached and tried for treason, along with his many enablers in the White House and Congress. It's unfuckingreal that it hasn't happened yet. 🤬

Underwhelmed, Overwhelmed, Impulsive are we, The Wombles of Wimbledon have ADHD

Sure, Nigel.

Public executions are what dictators do.

Dear tv and radio producers. Thankyou for the invitation. But, no, I do not want to appear on your show to defend the idea that I am English, after 50 years of living and working here, because the increasingly feral right want to turn this into a "debate" and you cannot see how you're being played

This a million times. People of colour being dragged on to debate maniacs about imaginary labels & race science is an abomination. proper ‘how German are you’ Nazi shit Note that people like me with white migrant parentage never asked to defend our identity Englishness. Is. A. Made. Up. Thing

No comment necessary.

That's another one done over as it were. Tonight I'm basically in Nottingham not talking about second hand cars.

I used to enjoy going to Gail's bakery. But someone described Gail's as 'Gregg's for Tories', and I've not been since.

Andy Burnham rules out giving workshy fops like Reeves the time of day

*This* is the point of being rich londondaily.com/banksy-funds...

Polling by YouGov with Best for Britain suggested Labour would get closest to forming a majority government at the next general election by adopting a manifesto commitment to rejoining the EU. A pledge to reverse Brexit was the only scenario tested that would stop a Reform UK-led government.

Sad news about Captain Gak Sparrow

Waiting for Burnham to say "We appreciate that some people may wish to slash at RNLI boats with what appears to be an illegal bladed article while shouting abuse and we hear their concerns". Take one step towards fascists, they take three steps back & say 'meet me halfway'. No pasáran.

maybe the greatest "letter gone missing" instance I've ever witnessed, deeply humbling

The lesson from this week is that most of the UK media thinks Hot Fuzz is a horror movie about a woke city cop destroying a perfectly admirable local community.

“If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse, and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.” ― Desmond Tutu Did no one tell Ed Sheeran?

God I'm glad I don't live in Piddington. It sounds like a god awful place. So much hate.

It didn’t start with gas chambers, it began with othering.

Abolish the Home Office.

Once again, the biggest problem with violent far right thugs making our streets dangerous is not that they might not vote Labour.

People keep posting this saying it looks a bit like fascist uniforms from sci fi films seemingly ignoring the fact in the actual text it says it was inspired by the Starship Troopers uniform worn by actual fascists in the film. There's no subtext here.

This is very much my magnum opus, represents days and days of traumatic work, includes clips which, I promise, you're not aware of, and one astounding moment of actual far right fake news being created - live! So, what I'm saying is, you better listen, share, and shower me with furs and jewellery.

Wow 👏

Can't get a moment's peace on this bloody planet.

Lovely tribute from the Blue Red Blue

"Maybe try it a bit broader for the next take?" and other things directors never had to tell Tim Curry.

Hi @andyburnham.bsky.social can we piggy back on this? You know it makes sense.

Who’s the biggest villain in TV history?

Hi @mrjamesob.bsky.social The date of change was 23rd June 2016. I was on site and some one used the "n-word" in my presence and I simply asked "what the fuck is wrong with you" given my usual polite self this hit home. If we don't call this shit out who will?

The problem with commentators reacting to the Jason Arday tragedy by sternly pointing out "people need to reflect on their own role in this" is that the people who really do need to reflect on their own role in this, never reflect on anything.

Hatred of a particular group is the strangest thing; you literally get nothing from hating, and the act of hating takes something away from you that you’d still have if you just ignored the target of your hatred

If you wondered whether they'd stop bullying somebody after he died then the answer is no, they won't. One of the usual ghouls, I wont bother with a screenshot, you dont need it in your life any more than I did.

Restore the social, personal and professional cost of racism.

Pornainen, Finland (pop 5,000) is now heated by a silo of crushed soapstone. I spoke to CNBC about it. 100 MWh, charged when power is cheap, emissions down ~70%. Days to weeks of storage, no critical minerals. www.cnbc.com/2026/07/25/f...

Hi @mrjamesob.bsky.social I hate to tell you this but you are about to have your arse handed to you regarding the cost of holidays. Add it to the list of nurses with tattoos now and let's get to 30p Lee. Trust me, I'm saying this as a friend.
